This stud farm, located 6.5km outside of the city, is a must for horse lovers. Once a week, on Saturdays, Yeguada de la Cartuja puts on an impressive Carthusian horse show. You can also take a guided tour, get close to the horses, and discover the history of this tradition.

Werdhi Budaya Art Centre is a cluster of traditional wooden buildings, galleries, and pavilions where you’ll find Balinese handicrafts on display.

The event is a fantastic opportunity for visitors from abroad and from Panama to truly appreciate the agricultural importance of Chiriqui. Last year, over 35,000 flowers were displayed at the fair, including orchids from Australia, Japan, the United States, Costa Rica and, of course, Panama. While flowers are the main attraction at the fair, local agricultural produce is also showcased, including potatoes, strawberries, cabbage, and lettuce. The most important of all the produce is the coffee, which is “cupped” or tasted here by local experts. Without a doubt, the Boquete Flower Festival is one of Panama’s most popular rural events, receiving around 100,000 visitors during its ten days, and with the income generated from the fair hovering around the $2 million mark, it is extremely important to the area from an economical point of view.
